Starting rehab assignment Wednesday Steele will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Impact Steele has managed to successfully toss several bullpen sessions, proving that he's ready to progress to facing live hitters. He'll presumably need to make at least a few appearances in the minors before being activated from the 60-day injured list, at which point he would likely provide support for the Cubs out of the bullpen considering he won't have enough time to build back up to a starter's workload.

Nearing rehab assignment Steele (elbow) is hoping to start a rehab assignment after throwing two more live bullpen sessions, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Impact Steele has been ramping up his activity since being cleared to resume throwing in early August. He's scheduled for two more live bullpen sessions (one of which takes place Tuesday), after which he'll be evaluated to determine whether he can embark on a rehab assignment. Steele hasn't pitched since April 7, 2025 and underwent UCL revision surgery on his left elbow one month later.

Almost ready to face hitters Steele (elbow) is close to being cleared to face hitters, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Impact Steele had UCL revision surgery last May and was nearing a rehab assignment when he suffered a flexor strain in late April. He resumed throwing off the mound Aug. 1 and is nearly ready to face hitters, presumably in a live batting practice session. Steele will not have enough time to ramp up for a starter's workload, but he has a chance to help the Cubs as a reliever in September.
